[QUOTE="susiedriver, post: 72431, member: 1848"] As I stated before, we *should* have had at least a neutral day, with being admitted into the S&P100, and were holding on until the press release came out, then fell steadily. Coincidence? I think not. We were down almost 2%, since the stock gained a bit after hours. The Dow was only off .1%, in spite of GM, which has nothing to do with us. If Target, which is a B&M business slows, it would stand to reason that catalog/internet sales would be up. Once again, Target has nothing to do with UPS. UPS has always prided itself as being an industry leader in all aspects, including wages, how does that translate as "disproportionately more at the expense of others?" UPS pilots have not lost one airframe, ever. They haul the packages that I was told were 10 times more profitable that ground packages I [I]used[/I] to haul. Now either I was lied to by management, or they are the line haulers for the highest profit margin portion of the core business. I realize, that as management, you probably feel all hourly are overpaid, and you are entitled to your opinions. That doesn't make it a fact, though. On top of that, four years is a long time to be in the amendable phase of a contract. You are correct, there is no guarantee that they will be released from mediation, there's also no guarantee they wont. [/QUOTE]
